Really? The guys at OO were urging caution. Let us know what happens, someone said they got one but it was open box.

The big box had indeed been opened, but the Metroid/GC bundle that was inside was still brand new. The additional stuff (3rd party controller, Midway Arcade Treasures, assorted cables) looked to be in brand new condition as well. So for $50, yeah, a really good deal.
